Am I the only one who thinks that Bertha will approve of Marian and Larry in season 3?

I keep seeing people say that they think she’ll have a problem with it, but I honestly don’t think so because…

She seems to like Marian. Inviting her to dinners and parties. Apologizing to her in season 1 when there wasn’t room for her in their party for the electric lighting that Mr. Raikes was invited to. Letting her be in their Met Opera box. Greeting her at the Easter service. That points to liking her.

Her problem with Mrs. Blaine was that she was twice Larry’s age. Marian is not.

Unlike Gladys, Larry doesn’t have to marry for position and money. He can marry for love. He can basically marry whoever he wants without much say from his parents.

In my opinion, when it comes to obstacles due to family, Bertha isn’t going to be the problem. It’s going to be Aunt Agnes. She’s the one that’s going to disapprove.

Yes, the roles are about to changed between Aunt Ada and Aunt Agnes, so with that in mind, I’m not sure how that will affect Marian and Larry’s relationship going forward, but one thing is for sure, the problem is still going to be Agnes.

I’m also someone who doesn’t believe that Mrs. Blaine will come back into the picture by way of being pregnant with Larry’s child because the writers admitted in post-finale interviews that Larry and Marian was always the plan. It was just a matter of when, not if. There’s going to be obstacles, that’s a given, but if they were always the plan, I doubt they would ruin that by making Larry father another woman’s child. I feel like that’s why they had Bertha say to Mrs. Blaine that she couldn’t give him an heir when she told her to break it off with Larry.

Also, I saw someone say that Larry and Marian are based on a historical couple that were across the street neighbors, where one was old money and the other was new money, so…there’s that aspect as well.

In any case, I’m so excited for season 3. And I can’t wait to see what happens between Larry and Marian, but for all the characters. The renewal news was the best early Christmas present that I could ask for.

One thing I LOVE about The gilded age? The characters repeat clothes. It's so common that in period pieces you see characters wearing different dresses every day, but that just wouldn't be possible in real life. Love that for them, it gives a dash of realism to the show.

I really appreciate how Marian's rebellion is so...small. She's not going anywhere dangerous, or teaching people Agnes hates. She teaches watercolours one afternoon a week to girls of her own class, and Agnes still loses her shit, and Marian knew she would.

(Also, I wonder how much sympathy re Raikes she got vs 'I told you so'. Agnes's desire to control means every sin is heinous)

The shifting power dynamic between Agnes and Ada should just be its own weekly sitcom and to hell with the rest of the show.

"I survived a feckless brother and married a man that was not easy, so that I might live a life that was dignified and secure."

Agnes van Rhijn is probably my favorite character in The Gilded Age and the show made a little bit of progress in Season 2 of giving her a little more depth. BUT I'm really interested in learning more about what made her the woman she is.

Both Ada and Agnes have referred to Mr. van Rhijn as a very unpleasant man, but I always got the feeling that despite that they were kind of underplaying how truly horrible he was. There's definitely a dark tale there. No doubt that Agnes is a survivor and has repeatedly sacrificed her happiness to do so and protect her sister. Agnes wears her dignity like armor and you can't help but wonder what indignities she suffered from her husband after their brother left them with nothing. She would have done her best shield her 'innocent' sister from as much as she could, but Ada has always been observant so she would have known and done what she could to support her. I wonder how much different they were when Mr. van Rhijn was alive. Was Agnes able to bend that steel spine of hers to keep him placated as much as she could? Or did she use that sharp wit of hers to draw his attention to her instead of Ada and Oscar?

Also, I don’t think we've ever heard Oscar even refer to his father. I wonder how old he was when Mr. van Rhijn died. I think he knows what his mother went through and that she did her best to protect him. They have a rather fascinating relationship anyway. Agnes obviously trusted his intelligence and capabilities in stewarding the family fortune, but I also don't think she will ever truly trust any man to have her and Ada's best interests at heart, even her son.
